Because the mods on this community would rather choose a source that they agree with than a source that's reliable.
Yes but have you considered that by using a fixed source you can shift the Overton window to where you want it to be?
At least I acknowledge that the Overton window on lemmy.ml leans to the left. This is just slowly tilting the Overton window on lemmy.world to the right.
This is a really well-reasoned response... Which probably means the mods will ignore it
There's a reason lemmy.ml mocks MBFC daily lmao
When your community is built from Redditors it's sort of bound to happen
Well, it's more that the mods know that people don't have an alternative
Because it's free money for MBFC
The mods on this community have always had a rather unhealthy relationship with MBFC
I'll allow this, but IMO once you get to 200k+ subscribers you should really consider launching an actual website. Ex-The Intercept and ex-HuffPost journalists should know better.
Newsweek has such shit journalism, man:
Yemen's Houthi rebels continued their attacks in the Red Sea by targeting two tankers in 24 hours, including a vessel carrying Russian oil likely heading to Asia, where China is the region's largest buyer.
That's the only justification given... Even though, y'know, India has been the largest buyer of seaborne Russian oil since the sanctions and is also, shockingly, in Asia. Meanwhile, it's summer and the Northern Sea Route is viable, cutting the transport distance almost in half.

I do think we don't have a clear policy on opinion pieces and that's absolutely something we should work towards. Right now it's more of a case-by-case basis.
If you could point to some specific examples that would be great!

Technically the US (the country) gets +2 bronzes (Puerto Rico) and China (the country) gets +2 golds and +2 bronzes (Hong Kong)... but this whole comparison is stupid.
